As a member of Substackâs Growth team, you will be responsible for building mobile features that bring writers and creators to Substack and help them succeed here â improving discovery, activating new users, strengthening Substackâs network, and running A/B tests on key user flows. Engineers on Growth work in close partnership with designers, product thinkers, and customers to make it easier than ever for writers and creators to make a living.
Substackâs compensation package includes a market-competitive salary, equity for all full-time roles, and exceptional benefits.

Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors including candidate experience and expertise and may vary from the amounts listed above.
Responsibilities
- Develop features that help grow the Substack app and ecosystem.
- On Android, we use Kotlin and all the latest Google-approved technologies (i.e. Jetpack Compose, Room, Coroutines, etc.). On the web, work with JavaScript, especially Node/Express and React, and Postgres. Itâs helpful if you know these technologies already, if not, weâll be excited to help you learn.
- Collaborate with other Android engineers at Substack to define architectural patterns and ship new features for the Android client.
- Collaborate with designers, writers, support staff, and many others. From product concept and research to implementation and deployment, we expect you to own your work and operate autonomously.
- Work directly with customers to solve their problems.
Requirements
- At least 8 years of software engineering experience.

- Enjoy collaboration with a diverse group of thinkers while bringing our own unique experience and background to the team.
- Believe in Substackâs mission to build a new economic engine for culture.
Experience at a fast-growing startup or working on a high-performing growth team is not required, but is a plus.
